Reviews
Saju is amazing, I feel extremely blessed to have met him. I feel like I have progressed so much since I knew him ans I just enjoy our sessions
He is the most understanding person and gives great insight to problems or issues. Really friendly and Kind 10/10 would recommend :)
Saju has been absolutely phenomenal and even though I will be cancelling the services in January (for financial reasons), I will be sure to highly recommend him to family and friends looking for virtual counselling services.
Thank you so much Saju!
Saju is very insightful and knowledgeable, I feel like I'm in great hands. He never leaves me hanging and he's doing a great job of helping me get to the root of my issues.
Great councilor very helpful and has good suggestions and advice on situations I need help with
Really amazing so far! Is giving me good advice on how I need to change in order to make my surroundings change very interesting guy!
i see myself moving forward on my life since i started counseling with him. i strongly recommend him .
Saju is always there for me, I can ask him anything and I feel he puts me on the right path and takes away my worries. He gives such a great service. Highly recommend to all and have recommended him to friends. Thanks Saju.
Saju is an excellent counselor.
Saju is wonderful! He listens to my concerns and gives thoughful and insightful feedback. He has really helped me focus more on the root of the problems I am facing and come up with practical solutions. I am really glad I got placed with him anhd would highly reccommend his services.
I absolutely enjoy working with Saju. I’m able to tell him everything and he doesn’t make me feel uncomfortable in any way.
I've used many therapists to deal with my anxiety and stress over the years but by far Saju is the best therapist I've ever had.
I like the way you approach my problems. I feel confident writing about everything to you ! Thanks a lot !
Very helpful, saju is very nice and understanding when I’m talking about my problems and a lot of his advices really helped me!
There wasn't any doubt to me that I need counseling, I have been just fearful of sharing my thoughts with someone. I believe I have a good match with Saju, because he has helped me to make sense of my thoughts that I am at constant war with my head. I am really thankful for him and I look forward to working with him to better understand myself.
Great listener and really responsive. The best part was his direct approach at keeping me on track with my goals when needed.
I’ve been given a perspective alongside realistic actions and long term work I need to do, therapy has been very holistic and very helpful so far. The honesty is so very appreciated too.
Saju is incredible. He is supportive, gives tangible advice and also challenges your thinking and isn't afraid to tell you things that you need to hear. He helped me through the worst breakup of my life and helped me look towards and improve my future. Would recommend him to anyone and everyone!
Mr. Saju Abraham has been very supportive and helpful. Unlike my previous counselor here at BetterHelp, he has shown genuine willingness to help and listen. He actually read my profile. I have been straightforward with him at first and he answered with kindness. He provides questions that made me think and made me slowly go back on track. He is also an inspiration to future therapists/counselors like me that there are people who are really good and genuine with their craft. Thank you, Saju.
He's great!
Saju has been great at listening, responding, and engaging in thoughtful and engaging discussion regarding some issues that I’ve been going through. It’s so nice to be able to engage with an unbiased third party to think through different approaches to certain issues and I appreciate his timeliness and the thoughtfulness in his approach.
He is kind, listens and understands my situation and respects it.
I was so against getting counseling. But since I have opened up to my counselor about things I wouldn’t usually speak to anyone about. I would almost consider him a friend. He listens, gives great advice and helps me to look at things in a way I never have before. He also makes sure to let me get everything of my mind before talking and as me what am I thinking about his advice. I am glad he is able to help bring me peace and an understanding of how to deal with things I would normally react badly and differently too. I am really happy to have given this app/ service a chance.
Saju is proving to be a great counsellor and helping me through a difficult time which is very much appreciated by myself.
Saju has been really wonderful and amazing throughout this last couple of weeks. The journey was amazing and I really appreciate all the help he provided. Thank you BetterHelp for giving the opportunity.
Saju is very prompt, insightful and encouraging in his responses providing guidance and understanding of a person's emotions, needs and counseling goals thus fostering confidence, worth and self reflection from a healthy place to ensure ones positive growth.
Saju is very insightful and picks up on things from conversation. Extremely helpful!
Saju has really made me look deeper into my own psyche. He has made it possible for me to take a step back and reflect on my behaviours and choices, and then to respond in a positive manner.
Saju Abraham is the best psychologist I have ever had. He listened, he understood, and he helped. I will always be thankful to him.
Saju is great. He listens and has great insights.
I have had one phone session with Saju and for just under half an hour he was able to help me realize a lot. With his help I think I can recover quicker than if I were on my own. Saju is very nice to talk to. He is caring and has a lot of professional experience to help others.
I have been in sessions with Saju for a few weeks. I've had counseling in the past but found my sessions with Saju as most helpful.
What I found most impressive is that he was less about chit chat and more about my issues. Within the first session I was able to address things that would've taken me weeks to dig into with other counselors.
I also like the fact that Saju respects my time and allows me to speak and share. In my past experiences, I would be redirected if I shared something too raw or personal. Not only did Saju allow me to feel comfortable sharing very challenging topics; he welcomed it. I felt like he wanted authenticity from me and that was refreshing.
I would recommend him to anyone who is ready for change. Saju is going to "go there" and help you face some of the things you were too afraid to confront in the past. Give him a try because I'm sure you'll be glad that you did. He does a great job and helping someone face challenges and grow from it. I feel like a weight has been lifted off of my conscience now. I feel like I can step into my future while making closure with my past!
Saju has been respectful and professional, even in this short period he has given me the confidence that I need, to work on my issues. He has a way to make you feel comfortable to open up and self reflect. I wish I'd invested in my mental health sooner.
Saju is amazing. He listens and asks very probing questions, which was is amazing. I would highly recommend him to anyone. Has made this process very pleasant.
I really like Abraham's responses to my messages. He answers very quickly and feel he listens to what I have to say.
Saju is a great listener and he is able to provide useful tips and break it down as to how you can approach your problems.
Very kind and responsive
I think Saju Abraham, is very intelligent. He has a non threatening approach to my personal situation, offers un bias professional opinion and is there when I need to talk. I will continue to work with him through these matters and I appreciate him and BetterHelp for assisting me through my struggles.
I really like the way Saju explains how certain emotions and feelings work, where do they come from, cause I really like learning. I would like to be more conscious about my reactions and deeds, go deeper and find what really concerns me and work on that, and with Saju it really goes well in this direction. Looking forward for our next sessions! :)
Saju is helping me rationalize my thoughts and feelings. Sometimes he asks questions that hurts, and it takes me a few days to posses. But I truly feel like he wants to help. And all the hard subjects is for me to take the time to get to a better place.. Highly recommend.
Saju has really helped me turn my life around from a low point in my life, to feeling really good, having more energy and being more positive every day. Best thing I ever did was get counselling and getting connected with Saju was the best thing that happened to me. He's fantastic! Would recommend to everyone, whether you think you need him or not, I have no doubt he will help you achieve all your goals and aspirations. Amazing!
I am one to hold back my issues out is shame and it making me look stupid. But Saju has a way even if it takes me a week sometimes to get back to him about a question he asked or a task he has given me. I always seem to follow through. That is new for me. So I have to say he’s working for me.
After several conversations, I'm feeling quite positive about my correspondence with Saju. His questions seem objective and thoughtful. He's been a great sounding board and I look forward to further personal exploration.
Fabulous!
My counselor has been incredibly helpful in a lot of aspects of my life. From dating to parenting, to managing emotions when I'm alone. He's been supportive, knowledgeable and empathetic. He's always available to talk, even on the weekends. When I had the phone conversations, he would free up time in his schedule to accommodate me. I couldn't recommend a better counselor.
Saju is a great person and terrific counselor. He actively listens and provides constructive, actionable guidance. He is kind, yet assertive in his approach...always holding me accountable which I appreciate. I’ve made major life changes since seeking his counsel and can’t say enough about the role he played in that.
Saju is very thoughtful and respectful. He takes time to listen, and makes sure he understands what you are saying.
I’ve written before and I’ll say it again. He listens, doesn’t shy from being upfront and gives very good advice. Highly recommended. Thanks Saju!
It crazy what a couple of months of counseling with Saju have done for me. Saju is respectful, very helpful and never judgmental; he always listens and has helped me through so many issues. Would recommend Saju to anyone.
Saju is very thoughtful and considerate and has offered some very helpful advise.
This man is awesome- he listens and responds with much needed advice. I would recommend him to anyone!
I feel so grateful for Saju Abraham's counsel and wisdom. He listens intently with compassion and empathy and gives advice when appropriate. I am learning a lot from him about how to be a more responsible adult and to be grateful for what I have. He is wise beyond his years, but still young enough to be open minded and flexible. He also shares openly his own challenges when they are relevant to something I am experiencing. This helps me see that he is a human being as well who has overcome his own fears through therapy and following the advice he shares with his patients.
Saju knows how to ask the right questions at the right times. And it helps me contextualize what I think into a more objective point of view.
Thank for building my self esteem up and being my voice reminding me I can do it.
I've been improving emotionally and mentally with Saju Abraham. I feel confident talking and I'm getting results and solutions for my problems and struggles. I’m getting better and growing a lot. It’s been a wonderful experience for self-development.
I've had a great experience working with Saju. He has been extremely helpful and supportive. He makes you feel like you can fully trust him. The communication is perfect! I am fully satisfied with the quality of counseling provided by Saju.
Saju is is very understanding and non judgemental when it comes to many different struggles you may be having. I've spent over a year with him, and enjoyed discussing many different topics on different situations, and he makes sure they are all explained in depth to give the most understanding. He is also ready to listen to any questions or comments you may have without adding too much information or too many details into what is being delt with. If you ever end up drifting away from your task at hand or whatever you are dealing with he wil continue to check in with you which helps keep you focused on what it is you need to do to help you through your situation.
Saju is an amazing person. He listens and offers advise that actually works best for you.
He is attentive, asks all the necessary questions and provides feedback accordingly. Would highly recommend him to anyone needing counseling.
I have been working with Saju for close to seven months now. I don’t know where I would be right now in my life without his help. I am so glad I reached out and even happier that I ended up with Saju! He is so easy to talk to. He gives great perspective when I need it and is always checking in to see how things are going. I really couldn’t have asked for a better experience with him & BetterHelp.
Saju has been a source of understanding and clarity. Thank you.
Saju is there when you need him and its very comfortable to talk to him
I had a great experience with Saju.
He helped me adress lots of things that were basically out of control in my life.
He helped me understand once more this is my life, and not a life owned by others. He taught me how to set boundaries and be more assertive and to start addressing my problems instead of allowing them to crush me.
Thank Saju, you always have a place in my heart.
Saju is amazing and has helped keep me grounded while progressing in life. He helps me figure out the right path to take and has helped me prioritize self care. God definitely lined me up with the right help!
Saju is an excellent counselor and is helping me navigate a rough patch. His experience across a wide range of areas including life transitions, relationships, anxiety, depression is a great asset. He is non-judgmental but also not afraid of calling things out that I might not have seen otherwise.
Saju is a fantastic support and personable therapist. You are safe in his kindness, directness, and expertise!
Saju always balances the tendency to globalize a situation with a good dose of reality. He won’t allow you to walk a way from a conversation without challenging faulty logic yet he is respectful and empathetic. I like him a lot.
Thank you for everything so far Saju!!!
Saju has been of great comfort, support and help throughout a hard situation I found myself in. His level headedidness and focus on what’s best for me gave me confidence to withstand issues that arise and deal with them accordingly. I can not recommend him enough.
Saju is great, I feel he really understands me and whats going on in my life. He also is good at telling me things that I need to understand and need to work on. I feel comfortable telling him anything.
Saju is an excellent counselor who always listens and provides lots of tools for learning, understanding, and growth.
Only a few conversations, and Saju "read" me and helped me with my situation. He is very good in what he is doing and you can put your trust in him.
Saju was attentive and I thank him for his time.
I appreciate Saju - he feels me out and doesn't get pushy. I don't feel judged. He is a smart dude that knows what he is talking about.
Saju is amazing! I tried a couple of psychiatrists but never felt 100% comfortable and listened too. When Betterhelp matched me up with Saju it was different, Saju really listens and makes you feel important. He has helped me a lot with my anxiety and being aware of my behaviours and where they are coming from. I strongly recommend Saju for others who are looking for help!
I just began working with Saju, but he presents very well and seems very knowledgeable with regards to how to assist me with my issues. He is direct and may not always tell me what I want to hear, which is a refreshing change of pace because he makes me think outside of the box. I would highly recommend Saju.
Saju is very easy to discuss issues with and has helped by offering us some books to read together. Glad we're building a health relationship that we both can trust in. This helps my relationship with my spouse by letting her know I'm trying to be better. Saju has started me off on the right track. - Thanks
Saju is a great therapist he has helped me realize that there are two sides to a coin. Even when you just live on one side of the coin, it does not mean the other side does not exist. This has encouraged me to try new things and meet new people along the way.
As a person who is very apprehensive with expressing myself and exposing my vulnerabilities, Saju provides security, comfort, treatment, and encouragement in this journey. He is very passionate about tackling the issues at hand and I totally appreciate it.
Saju is not my first counselor/therapist. I like him very much and would say that he compares favorably to my previous experiences. What I notice about him is his laser-like focus and concentration. He listens and pays attention to what I say in my written messages. I am feeling so much better after only two weeks.
Saju has been extremely beneficial in my path to becoming emotionally healthy. He challenges me to journal my emotional health and responses to situations in my life. I feel like I have a therapy partner who understands me, understands my concerns and needs, and offers hope and enlightenment. I am learning tools to treat myself through our conversations. I enjoy being able to communicate with him via messages on BetterHelp and our twice monthly phone sessions.
Saju is a guy who is extremely good at what he does. He's helped me out a lot especially when I had no one to turn to, the fact that he was Indian, the same nationality I was made me feel extremely comfortable. I was extremely skeptical of how BetterHelp could help me from a counsellor who was so far away. It was good for its purpose and Saju helped me through some dark days. You know you're in good hands when you have Saju, and I'm all the more happy for it.
Saju doesn't glaze over block-issues such as depression, addiction, etc. He has a tailored insight to very specific issues such as Limeracy, which until now, I didn't think I'd find on BetterHelp having tried the site twice before. He replies everyday and really understands. He's been so quick to make a difference and a genuine passion for what he does makes him stand out. Finally found a good one!
Saju is a wonderful counselor, taking time to ask questions to get at the heart of the issues. He not only has the training and experience as a counselor, but a great deal of wisdom, which is something you don't learn in school. I appreciate that he made sure of my level of comfort and Christian walk before connecting his advice to the Bible; his ability to dive deep into the Word has been a huge blessing to me. I highly recommend!
I was really nervous about using online counseling, and Saju has been wonderful. His expertise with military issues is super helpful. I'm very happy I have been paired with him.
So far I am very grateful for the support given and guidance from Saju. I am finally coming to understand after many years what has caused my emotional problems and starting to understand how to manage them in my future. Thanks Saju!
I am very pleased with Saju Abraham he listens to me and tells what he thinks about my situation. Hands up for Saju Abraham
He is very prompt, entertaining and helpful.
I am getting way more help than I thought I would be getting!
Saju is always willing to help and he is someone I can really look up to. He is very similar to myself, so I find it very easy to connect with him. He is also very available, even during times when it seems that he shouldn't. I'm very glad I was paired with Saju!
Saju's great—very practical and good at addressing issues one by one, and good at sensing when another issue might be on the horizon or lying beneath the surface. I experienced a huge relief when we worked through my main issue (social anxiety) and I use the tools and advice provided by Saju daily to see and feel a big difference.
Saju is great. He listens to what I say and seems to genuinely care about me and my problems. I look forward to our continued sessions.
Very attentive and insightful!
So far Saju seems the right person for my case.. he is very caring and most importantly has lot of knowledge in spiritual / religious matter which are quite intriguing for me ..
After being in so many therapy and quitting , I feel with the patience and wisdom of Saju , I have the feeling this time, I will go through the end of the therapy and hopefully heal completely as I am a perfectionist :)
Thank you Saju for being you! God bless you
Even we are just in the beginning, I feel that he is there to lend me an ear and time
way to go, Sir Saju!
Saju has been a wonderful help the last month. He has gone out of his way to schedule sessions with me when it was convenient for me. He has a lot of experience and seems very enthusiastic about his job and about helping people. He's happy to listen and help you ask those important questions of yourself. His positive demeanor is always nice as well! I would definitely recommend him as a therapist.
Saju is awesome...he is understanding and has no judgment or prejudice.
Saju has been a huge help for me. For such a long time I always tried to deal with my issues in silence and Saju has helped me feel comfortable to deal with them directly and find peace and freedom. His recommendations on how to overcome addiction, anxiety, PTSD and shame have worked very well for me. What I like about Saju is he tailors your needs and develops strategies that work. I still have a long ways to go but I'm finding the confidence that I can overcome it all and find the peace I have long searched for.
Saju is very smart and he has used that intelligence to give me helpful advice and new perspectives on life. He is very polite and makes me feel cared for, and he gives very thorough advice on the topics that I tell him about.
